Our fleet

Bare timber ceiling spray

Project:

Raking bare timber ceiling spray

Challenge:

Its very important to use a proper undercoat with stain blocker capabilities. Timber that hasn’t been painted, especially ceiling has got moisture that has been built up over the years. This will react to the timber oils and ‘tanning’ will occur. It doesn’t matter how many coats of paint you apply, yellow stains are coming through.
We used our normal ‘go to’ undercoat, but it didn’t work. It had to be water based product to run it through the spray gun. I would definitely recommend using SMART PRIME water based undercoat/stain blocker. Its more expensive, but it’s performance is the same as oil-based stain blockers. Magic.

Aluminium door and window frame spray

Project:

Full interior and exterior repaint in Applecorss. Highlight: aluminium frames

Challenge:

Riverfront property with winterly winds are challenging when it comes to spraying. Everything has to be masked to prevent overspray to other surfaces and neighbours next door. Sliding doors needs to be sprayed in different positions to make sure it covers all the corners and angles.

Surf Life Savings Club repaint 

Project:
Repaint for the club steel window frames that are 10m from the ocean.

Challenge:
Salt and heavy winds make everything to rust in a short period of time. Weather and long curing time for the paint. Painting two pack epoxy (mixing two parts together): thick coatings, short time to apply (only an hour to apply before it goes off).

Work:

Grind back to bare surface to achieve a solid uniform finish.

Weatherboard Cottage 

Project:
Residential house that needed paint for walls, window frames, rafters, porch balustrade and front steps.

Key preparation:
We had to make sure that tiber was filled properly and sealed to keep the moisture away. We filled all the screw and nail holes, cracks and gaps from Perth weather.

On this project we decided to spray the walls as it gives better finish and saves time which results in favorable pricing for the customer.

Challenge:
Perth’s winter weather. It’s important that there is zero wind, otherwise neighbours might find overspray on their cars or somewhere else.

Residential exterior re-paint in East Perth 

Project: This is a typical case study of weather and sun-damaged weather and fascia boards. As seen on the photos, it hasn’t serviced for a long time. It causes flacking of paint. Also, the weather has damaged the fascia board corner surfaces to decay.

Challenge: Avoid the sun and work with 40-degree heat painting in Perth.


Solution:

  • Clean all surfaces

  • Use filler products to smooth and prepare the surface for exterior painting

  • 4 coats of DULUX paint

  • For weatherboards extra 2 coats of DULUX Weathershield paint to protect it for the upcoming years.

Full exterior re-paint in Mosman Park 

Project: The property is next to the river/ocean, surfaces where damaged by heavy winds carrying ocean salt. Hot sun increases the pores in the paint, which results in greater absorption of salty moisutre and finally more corrosion.

Solution:

Industrial grade paint. Barrier coat for protection against chemical attack

#DULUX Weathermax HBR two-pack for iron fence and gates
#DULUX Weatherhsield for masonry surfaces
